Planning Your Desktop Workspace

Does your work require you to spread out a lot of paperwork? Or is your work primarily making phone calls? Do you have a lot of samples or catalogs you frequently refer to? Or is your largest reference tool the Internet? Answering these questions will help you decide how much desktop and counter space you need. If your work involves a lot of paper and spreading out, invest in an expansive conference table. If all you need is a phone and a laptop, look into office armoires. Best bet: keep your personal work habits in mind as you design your workspace.
